As a skilled itinerant gunsmith, he roams the Scottish Lowlands with a rifle slung over his shoulder and his dog, Hebe, by his side. With little regard for authority, Calder often finds himself at odds with the law, preferring to trust his own instincts and expertise to solve problems. His gritty pragmatism and sharp eye for detail make him an unlikely yet captivating detective. From pheasant shoots gone wrong to grisly murders among the elite, Calder is drawn deeper into a world of crime, forcing him to reckon with his own values and choices. Calder may not wear a badge, but when the police are in over their heads, he’s the man they turn to for answers.THE SETTING:The Scottish Lowlands — wild, rugged and steeped in mystery — serve as the perfect backdrop for Calder’s adventures. Vast moors, dense woodlands and tranquil valleys conceal dark secrets beneath their serene exterior. The sparse population of these remote regions only adds to the sense of isolation, where every twist of the mist or flicker in the trees could signal danger. Calder’s turf is not just the terrain but the undercurrents of tension that run through these quiet communities. In a land where everyone knows each other’s business, the peace is often shattered by murder. This eerie landscape, where beauty and peril coexist, becomes the perfect playground for a man of Calder’s talents to uncover the truth, no matter how dark or dangerous.IN THIS FIFTEEN-BOOK BOX SET:Book 1: Dead GameBook 2: The Reward GameBook 3: The Revenge GameBook 4: Fair GameBook 5: The GameBook 6: Cousin Once RemovedBook 7: Sauce for the PigeonBook 8: Pursuit of ArmsBook 9: Silver City ScandalBook 10: The ExecutorBook 11: The Worried WidowBook 12: Adverse ReportBook 13: Stray ShotBook 14: A Brace of SkeetBook 15: Let Us PreyGET ALL THESE GREAT ADDICTIVE SCOTTISH MYSTERIES IN ONE SUPERB-VALUE BOX SET.
